THE GOOGLE WAY
Ahhh my picture is in the paper this week! I loved the google project and thought it was an amazing opportunity for students to explore our own musical interests. I definitely plan on continuing my project next semester, I loved making instruments and I'm looking forward to what I can think of next! I want to thank our teacher Mr. Matthys, he is the one who made it possible for us to do this project and he rocks!

REBAR TRIANGLE!!!!
I played my home made rebar triangle at the pep rally for state today and it rocked! The triangle is huge and the sound is extremely similar to a normal triangle. I started with a straight piece of metal rebar and bent in into the general triangle shape while at school, and then I was able to clamp the metal at home and hammer the metal to get sharper corners.

YAY XYLOPHONE!
Today was absolutely wonderful I re-supported the base of my xylophone with a wooden beam nailed diagonally across the bottom. Then I was able to nail down each piece of sheet metal.
